Yeah, I'd go to the shower and probably spend more than I would at a working mom's shower. The teen is probably going to have one hell of a time getting herself through the rest of high school and hopefully into college. I'd do what I could to be of support and probably offer babysitting services for nearly free or free as long as it was for her to go to work or school.Â

I was invited to my first baby shower as a freshman, 14 years old. It was for someone I knew from school who was 15 and more of an acquaintance. I didn't even ask my mom if I could go because I didn't want to have a talk about teen pregnancy and honestly, at that time it was uncomfortable for me. As an adult of course my decision may be different because I wouldn't need permission and I would be buying a gift with my own money.

I would go. I figure if anything a teen mom needs more support than your average adult pregnant woman. If they arw making the decision to keep their baby and them themselves they deserve to have that baby celebrated also. They need their frienda and family to show them that even though this baby wasnt planned and yes theyrw young that they still support and love them.
